Their struggle to be left alone and live their lives is epic, and I loved every minute of it. With aliens landing on Earth and a first encounter that is beyond hopeless, none of the participants really know what to do or where to go, but all of them know being caught is not an option.

Not only does it have interesting characters, a tense plot, and mind-boggling adventures, at the core of it is a very creative science fiction concept, that of an intelligent battle armor.

This is an amazing book, one of those that touched me deeply and will remain with me for quite a while. It will take everything Riley has to steer them through the mess they create. When hitman and alien join forces, they discover their impressive combined potential for death and destruction. Misha is determined to win Riley back and willing to do whatever it takes to keep him safe. Together, they embark on a road trip from hell, made all the more exciting by the government troops and mob enforcers hot on their trail. Their reluctant partnership soon evolves into something much more powerful-and personal-than either of them could have imagined. That’s why he first stows away in Riley's truck and then in Riley himself.

Sabotaging the ship put an end to that, but McClane is dubbed a bone rider for good reason-he can’t live without a host body. A failed prototype, McClane was scheduled for destruction. Alien armor system McClane is also on the run, for reasons that include accidentally crashing a space ship into Earth and evading U.S. Misha Tokarev, the love of his life, turned out to be an assassin for the Russian mob, and when it comes to character flaws, Riley draws the line at premeditated murder.
